In reply to: category name vs. TagsI have the same problem on a client’s site. She is trying to create a tag called “writing” but it keeps getting changed to “Writing samples” which is a category. At least I know what the problem is now! Although I don’t know what the solution is, other than telling her she can’t use “writing” as the name of a tag.

In reply to: Category-based single post templatesDid a little more searching here on pluggable.php and as a result edited the post-templates-by-category.php file to delete an extra space at the very end. And now it works.

In reply to: Category-based single post templatesI am trying to upgrade a blog from 2.0.4 to 2.3.3. I have used the post-templates-by-category plugin. While it works in displaying the posts, I am having a problem in 2.3.3 in editing or creating posts. When hitting the Publish button I receive the following error:
Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at ../wp-content/plugins/post-templates-by-cat.php:96) in ../wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 390
Also received the same error when trying to deactivate the plugin, so had to rename it.
There is not any mention of this plugin in the list of those that work or don’t work with 2.3 – so I don’t know if it is still supported. I thought the problem might be with my template, but I tried it with the default template and received the same error.
It does not seem like there is any other plugin that will do the same thing. Anyone know what could be wrong or if there is a new plugin that works?

In reply to: IE 6 and 7 WYSIWYG ChallengesI have this problem too – I think it was in version 2.2 that it started, so I thought (hoped!) that it might be fixed by now. I “solved” it by not clicking on the tree, just by selecting the image and clicking on the left or right align buttons to align the image. That does not solve the problem of being able to add spacing or borders.

In reply to: TDOMF: SUBMITTED BAD DATA on postingThat happened to me. Well I don’t actually remember if it was this form or not – but the problem was that I am using an “all in one” theme i.e. it does not call a separate header file. The solution was to add
<?php session_start(); ?>to the very top of my page.php template and then it worked fine.Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: This is frustrating! PLEASE HELPYou should check with the seller if you are using their FTP program. If it is something on the hosting control panel, it might not work at the folder level, you need an FTP program.

In reply to: This is frustrating! PLEASE HELPYou can find step-by-step instructions here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Themes
If someone is “selling” you WordPress (an open source system), then presumably they should be selling you support along with it.

In reply to: Menu items to appear only if user is logged idIt is a beautiful thing!! I knew it would be easy for someone who knew what they were doing (and pretty much impossible for me!)
Thank you so much!

In reply to: how to use category AND archive templatesWell I think I did it right as per the instructions above for “Tags with query-string-style parameters”. Here is what I have:
<?php wp_list_cats('file=archive.php&exclude=1&use_desc_for_title=0'); ?>The other 2 parameters are being followed correctly. Does the file need more of a path to it? There are no examples – it just says “The php file a Category link is to be displayed on. Defaults to index.php.”

In reply to: how to use category AND archive templatesThis is what I want:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Template_Tags/wp_list_cats
where it says there is a “file” parameter, but it doesn’t work. I put in file=archive.php, but it continues to use the category-2.php template.Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: how to use category AND archive templatesIt looks like it would kind of work, thanks. Currently I have the site configured to show 10 posts per page, so it looks like I could have the first page showing the full length post and then the remainder as a kind of “archive” that would go on the next page. I guess that would then only show 10 per page – that wouldn’t be so good…

In reply to: Original Image in IEI tried this solution that you suggested: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/69325
but it just resulted in a javascript error which could be because the problem is not exactly the same. In my case (2.0.2 and 2.0.4) the quotes are going in the right place, it is just that height=”96″ is going in at all.The plugin looks a bit to complicated for the non-technical users that I have – they are not likely to know the dimensions of their images.
I do have an original 2.0.2 inline-uploading.php – I will try comparing it with the edited one to see if I can figure out what I did the first time to make it work.

In reply to: PDF upload/link pluginYou can upload pdf’s via the inline uploader. I had a problem when using the “send to editor” menu in the uploader, but I was able to drag and drop the pdf into the page or post to create a link to it.

In reply to: Header Image missing in ExplorerI ran into this problem as well. It is fine in Windows IE but in researching I found it is a bug in Mac IE (no ignorance involved). If you use double quotes “header.jpg” instead of single quotes ‘header.jpg’ to reference the background image that should solve it. It may also work with no quotes – it is the single quotes that causes the problem.
